My legs are tired!!!

The day before racing a duathlon I rode 4 hours, then 2 days after the duathlon I rode 80 miles and I was wondering why I was feeling so flat lately....duh! I haven't been recovering so well lately but good news is that this is a recovery week....yahoo. Not sure what to do with myself.

I finished up a decent week of training. Managed a 3 hour ride on Wednesday after doing a long swim in the morning. The ride felt horrible. I had no energy. I got up the next morning to do a long run and figured it would be a shuffle fest but it turned out okay. I ran 1:30 and felt pretty decent. Rode 2 hours on the trainer on Saturday, then followed that up with a HILLY 3 hour ride on Sunday and a 30 minute brick run. Felt pretty good considering.

I volunteered at the Ridgefield Tri on Sunday. It was a good race. If only every triathlete would volunteer their time at one race, it would help grow this sport even more with knowledgeable people on the course.

Lots of travelling coming up and lots of training so this recovery week will do me good. Planning on racing Griskus Olympic in a few weeks, then off to Idaho for IMCDA.....I get to watch :-) followed by a big training weekend in Lake Placid, my half iron in RI, back to Lake Placid and before I know, my ironman will be here.

I'll take lots of great pics so spice up the blog....everyone wants to see pics, right?

Later.
